Rugby Pass 4/10: "Put in a few great kicks, but you can’t help but wonder why he didn’t do it more? Wales had no attack whatsoever, so why wouldn’t you use your 10’s massive boot?"
#2. Alex Dombrandt (England)
RUCK 5/10: "Caught out defensively again. Poor."
Telegraph 6/10: "Late hit on Sexton put England under pressure and he was left on an island chasing Van der Flier before Sheehan’s try. Better here, but was it enough long-term"
Planet Rugby 6/10: "The number eight didn’t quite rise to the occasion again, and while he did have some success with his carries, he still isn’t fronting up physically.

#3. Edoardo Iachizzi (Italy)
Planet Rugby 4/10: "After impressive performances throughout the tournament, he earned his first start for the Azzurri. Unfortunately, he was unable to make the most of his opportunity.
"He flourished with the ball in hand, gaining over 30 metres, but he conceded two penalties, wasted a threatening attacking position with a poor pass and was replaced shortly after the break."
#4. Wyn Jones (Wales)
Rugby Pass 3/10:"Atonio got the better of Jones at scrum time, which ultimately let France into the game when Wales were playing well."
Wales Online 3/10: "Started with a couple of punchy carries, but the scrum is his bread and butter and he endured a difficult afternoon, giving away a couple of penalties. Subbed early in second half."
#5. George Turner (Scotland)
Rugby Pass 5/10: "A couple of errant lineouts, which has been a problem throughout the championship. He also irked the Scotland coaches for breaking too early from a maul, but did carry strongly."
